I also learned C this way (with ROM 2.4 in my case), but what I really should have learned is social skills. Instead, once I got good enough at C to make the playerbase my mostly unwilling playthings, all pretense of being anything other than the most insufferable insane dictator in human history went right out the window, and I was so drunk on my own "power" that I was entirely blind to it until it was far, far too late.
